What type of battery will it take? and also AF assist beam, is it fully functional? was it ever dropped?

It takes a little coin cell 2CR5 batteries, I'll include one or two. AF assist works really well in low light. Fully functional, never dropped.

I have found that only the unit mounted on top of the camera will emit the af assist beam.

Sorry about the delay but have been out of country. I tried opening the spotlight by removing all the screws but no access to the battery. Evidently it is only by unscrewing the lens can you access it. So probably best to ask them. Their customer service was very good about replying about my request for info about the batteries. I had no problem with going through airport screening in US, UK, Hong Kong, South Africa. The spotlight was great--people were asking about it--and was much brighter than those supplied by the game drives. Long lasting. I wouldn't be concerned about replacing the batteries. No problem recharging on 240v--just have an adapter. Sorry about the delay but have been out of country. I tried opening the spotlight by removing all the screws but no access to the battery.

Sorry. I have the 44901 lithium not the 44900 std battery. FWIW. Amp draw has to be marginal Best flashlight I've ever owned BTW.

No problems to report except for battery life is very low. I always have two extra batteries. After I am done using the range fider I always take out the batteries and put them back in. This shuts off the 2 hour stand by mode the scope goes into after you activate it the first time. The stand by mode is for active shooting it slows the remote to activate the scope range finder when a target appears. I have the button just above my trigger. Batteries run about $18 for two good Duracells. I do not store it below freezing I just use it in temps as low as 19F with no problems. I hope this helps you.

I put in duracell AA battery in when I got it. It's still in there. I use the flashlight everyday ...4 times a day lighting up dark rooms a few minutes at a time.

I've been using it for a month and a half and I haven't had to charge it yet. It comes with an 800mAh Li-ion battery. If you can stop yourself from playing with the laser pointer you should get even more mileage out of it.

Radio Shack Brand Ultralast #18500 Lithium Phosphate 3.2V Battery. I dont normally do this but i am suggesting you return that flashlight while u still can. I had purchased two and had to return one almost instantly after receiving it and the second is dead. No matter how many diff fully charged batteries i replace in it, it refuses to work. Trust me SEND IT BACK. Pelican makes a less exspensive dive light that works very well.

make sure you pull out the tab that separates the batteries from the metal. The ''pull tab'' is on most toys and appliances that DO include batteries. I bought this a long time ago and I use it for hunting. BTW- it is more of a ''Widespread'' than ''Beam'' or ''spotlight'' as most people say....but I use it to leave the shooting house, not shine on the deer because it would not put enough light on it. If you are looking for a really good hand held light that zooms in get one with a convex lens.

AA batteries do not work for more than 15 mins if you use tracking. The scope will operate but tracking will be very poor.

Good Morning, I am scared to say that it will take any battery but as long as its a quality 18650 you should be safe. I just checked to be sure and dropped a few different style 18650's into the bore and all worked. The light comes with the Fenix ARB-L1t 3400 + I am tossing in 2 Xtar CR123a's. Thanks, Shane

Not too bad. But I use rechargeables almost everywhere now, so not too much of an issue for me. Not sure how regulars hold up. You can run it on 'low beam' to save energy.

I have only used it a few times outside and in the attic for a total of 2 hours. Still working great. I have not had to change batteries. I bought two of these including one for my father. We both like the adjustable beam. Interestingly, when tightly focused the light projects a rectangular shape. We are pleased with the item and think it is priced fairly. Exceeds our expectations. Hope this helps.

I have been riding for 1.5 hours with the High Beam with no problem. I always charge it when I get back home. I hope it helps. Regards!!

Unfortunately, mine broke before I had a chance to replace the battery. I had two pair and both cracked over the right eye, dropping out the lens. Not reasonably repairable, so I threw them. I had been told online to use the CR927 batteries. They are smaller. I have seen a couple of reviews that state that as well. Good luck.

yep. Go on the Dorcy site. They are listed there, but likely "out of stock". Those batteries don't last long--I have gone through several of them, and two of the spotlights, too. Am ready to toss them.

sorry, can`t help you on that one, I did not order the lens, and I find it OK the way it gives me some perifery lighting. I'm more concern about battery life at this time, after a couple of months batteries last 2 hrs less than at the beginning
